Modifying Pictures
It's rare that you'll want to use an image file or piece of clip art as-is. If nothing else, you'll probably want to resize it or crop it to make it fit with the text and other elements on your slide. To be sure, PowerPoint isn't Photoshop, so don't expect editing miracles. In addition, your editing options are fewer when you use certain types of images (like photos) as compared to others (line-and-shape drawings you create in PowerPoint). Still, for most purposes you find PowerPoint's editing options more than adequate.
